Abstract
⺠The intact purified FsrC membrane histidine kinase was studied by SRCD spectroscopy. ⺠Far-UV spectra revealed that FsrC is 61% α-helical and relatively thermostable. ⺠Tertiary structure was found to be significantly affected upon GBAP ligand binding. ⺠Titration experiments revealed a calculated kd value of 2 μM. ⺠SRCD provides a valuable screening tool for membrane protein stability under a range of detergent conditions.
